Stability and flexibility don’t often come together in running shoes, but the Arahi from Hoka is proof that it can be explosive when it does. Explore new horizons in confidence and style thanks to the lightweight support of the 3D puff print frame, which doesn’t weigh you down with rigid materials. This, along with flat-waisted geometry, results in what Hoka call “Dynamic Stability”.

Other features in the shoe include a low heel-to-toe-drop of just 6mm, super-soft and comfortable cushioning in the shoes and it comes together to provide a highly responsive run. Experience a revolution in road treks.

About Stability Running Shoes

To determine the correct type of running shoe for your feet, use the tried and tested "wet foot test". Dip your foot into water and then stand on a surface that will show your footprint - a towel or piece of paper or cardboard. The shape of your wet footprint indicates the amount of stability you might need in your shoe. If your footprint looks like the one on the right (with a a flare, but with the forefoot and heel connected by a broad band.) then you should choose shoes from the stability category on this page. Stability shoes offer a good blend of cushioning, medial support (to limit excessive inward rolling of the foot, which can cause injury) and durability. To provide stability, they often have a medial post or dual-density midsole - these are features that provide a firmer density under the inner edge of your foot. You should buy these if you’re a midweight runner who doesn't have any severe motion control problems and wants a shoe with some medial support and good durability
The Normal Foot
Normal feet have a normal-sized arch and will leave a wet footprint that has a flare, but shows the forefoot and heel connected by a broad band. A normal foot lands on the outside of the heel and rolls inwards slightly to absorb shock. It's the foot of a runner who is biomechanically efficient and therefore doesn't need a motion control shoe.
Best shoes: Stability shoes with moderate control features.

About the Hoka One One brand

Hoka One One is the brainchild of two gravity sports enthusiasts; Jean-Luc Diard and Nicolas Mermoud. Both men have been adventuring for as long as they can remember, and their trail running experiences have taken them across the globe.

Both Jean-Luc and Nicolas are committed to the values of freedom and enjoyment and feel that it is integral to the running experience, whether running on the trail or in the city. With this in mind they started to look at the variables that affected the performance of different types of runners.

They quickly came to an important conclusion; fatigue, impact and muscle strain were challenges that runners of all stripes had to deal with every day. So Jean-Luc and Nicolas came up with a brilliant idea, why not design a shoe that would help to alleviate these problems - so that freedom and enjoyment could be guaranteed every time you go running!

From that idea Hoka One One was born. The word Hoka is derived from the ancient Maori language and roughly translates to "now it is time to fly". That's just how it feels to run in a pair of Hoka One One shoes; with each and every step your foot takes flight.
